David Byrne and Florida Gov. End Battle

Former Florida governor Charlie Crist issued an online video apology to Talking Heads leader David Byrne for the unauthorized use of the band's song Road To Nowhere in an ad against his Republican opponent in last fall's election.  The original copyright infringement brought against the Crist campaign by Byrne suggested that Crist, who ran as an independent, should pay a $1 million penalty for using the song without Byrne's permission or knowledge. The former governor said his campaign's use of the song was '...wrong and should not have occurred.'
